âAccording to Sales and Marketing Manager, Elroy Edwards, Karib Cable is giving customers an opportunity to enjoy greater bandwidth for less,â the company said in a release.

âThe cost differential to move to a higher bandwidth has substantially been reduced. For example, residential customers who have the 1.1 Mbps bronze package can upgrade and double their bandwidth for just an additional cost of $39.75 or business customers who have the 4.4 Mbps Platinum Package can upgrade to 8.8 Mbps by just paying $105.00 more,â the release further said.

âElroy also said that Karib Cable understands the economic environment in which we are in and wants Vincentians to be able to stretch their disposable income. The Internet is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity and we at Karib Cable are proud to lead the charge in making Internet rates more affordable to the people of St Vincent and the Grenadines,â the release further stated.
